Step By Step Calculation

Step 1: Understand Division Terms

  • Dividend: The number being divided (231).
  • Divisor: The number dividing the dividend (7).
  • Quotient: The whole-number result of division.
  • Remainder: The amount left over after division.

Step 2: Set Up the Division

Calculate 231 ÷ 7 to determine how many times 7 fits fully into 231.

Step 3: Perform the Division

231 ÷ 7=33

  • Whole-number quotient: 33 (the number of times 7 fits completely into 231).

Step 4: Verify the Quotient

Multiply the quotient by the divisor to check:

33 x 7 = 231

Step 5: Calculate the Remainder

Subtract this product from the original dividend:

231 - 231 = 0

  • Remainder: 0 (the amount left over).

Final Answer

231 ÷ 7 = 33 R 0

  • 7 fits into 231 exactly 33 times with a remainder of 0.
